Romelu Lukaku Continues Hot Start, Shows Passion in United Win

Romelu Lukaku, the subject of a very controversial chant that made global football headlines this week, is continuing his elite play on the pitch. Today he scored his eighth goal in eight games, and the 20′ strike ended up being the only scoring as Manchester United went on to win 1-0 at Southampton.

The extremely hot start by the big Belgian puts him in elite company at Old Trafford.

United won a game in which Southampton had more chances and more possession. The Red Devils were able to grind out all three points in a victory that wasn’t all too pretty. Saints controlled the ball 61-39% and out shot the visitors 14-9.
